background
After the ribonucleic acid (RNA) of the coronavirus enters the host cell, it triggers the infected cell to secrete interferon, which inhibits the replication of the virus in the infected cell and reduces the risk of infection among other uninfected cell.
Apoptosis is performed in human and animal cells by cysteine-aspartic proteases that clear infected cells to inhibit viral replicatio.
Research Methods and Results
In a mouse model, chemical inhibitors of caspase-6 greatly restricted the replication of mouse-adapted MERS-CoV (MERS-CoVMA) and significantly increased mouse survival from 33% to 80.
But how does the coronavirus use caspase-6 for its own benefit? Note that the interferon response is the most important and direct antiviral defense of the host cel.
Significance
This research shows how coronaviruses have evolved into highly successful pathogen.
